IF YOU PUT THIS ON YOUR BLOG, BE SURE TO LET ME KNOW SO I CAN COME OVER AND CHUCKLE ABOUT YOU! HEY!! IT'S ONLY FAIR NOW THAT I'VE BARED MY SOUL!!
These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................
hey! i know where you got this!!! ;)
